It is during our darkest moments that we must focus to see the light.
We all have challenges in life and always will.
It is during our darkest moments that we must focus to see the light.
We all have challenges in life and we always will, it's all part of the living experience - what counts is where our focus is, what we CHOOSE to focus on, how we see a challenge and how we feel about it. This will really help you to enjoy an enriched life. So you won't be afraid to face your fears, you'll be able to look at them head-on, watch them disintegrate as you make the best decision for you.
I have many challenges I'm facing right now and I'm going to share two with you - I'm dealing with these in totally different ways from a few years ago.
One of my really close friend's husband is very sick in hospital, this breaks my heart as I was so looking forward to coming back to England to spend time with them after so many years apart. Years ago my focus would have been totally different - I would have tried to cheer her up, get her to see the positive side, tell her it will be okay........BUT now I can just be there for her, I can just let her feel the pain, feel the sadness, knowing she's not alone. She doesn't have to put on the brave face, the mask, she can just be how she feels at that moment in time so she doesn't 'suppress' the emotions inside of her.
She said that this is her greatest comfort. I choose to focus on my friend and her husband being right there in the moment.
Watching my father day by day deteriorate with Alzheimer’s is just devastating. I never imagined I’d be bathing him and putting him to bed, helping feed him and read stories at bed time.
I am coming to terms with this on a daily basis and draw on all of my strength to just be there for him and my mother. I am truly grateful that I am nearby and able to spend the time with Mum and Dad as they struggle on in their 80’s. This to me this is a privilege but a while ago I would have seen this as devastating.

"Having a clear head on the way out was a frightening prospect; I was going to have full feeling and emotional weight back in m The last time I had felt anything like that was the last time I was in love and had my heartbroken, and that, precisely, tipped the scale in favor of freedom. I can almost pinpoint the exact time and place I knew I was going to keep using benzos as a way to forget everything, but I commonly confuse that with what was the first time I took benzos. They might actually be one in the same, but that's for another time." New post on WordPress about stopping doing shitty stuff and getting your heart broken! Fun stuff. Link in bio

“Go not to the temple to put flowers upon the feet of God, first fill your own house with the fragrance of love. Go not to the temple to light candles before the altar of God, first remove the darkness of sin from your heart. Go not to the temple to bow down your head in prayer, first learn to bow in humility before your fellow men. Go not to the temple to pray on bended knees, first bend down to lift someone who is down trodden. Go not to the temple to ask for forgiveness for your sins, first forgive from your heart those who have sinned against you.”

"It has been, and still is, one of the hardest times of my life.
To cope between vomiting and manic episodes, lowered seizure threshold, pathological loneliness
sleeplessness I would guiltfully call insomnia but I'm really just not here when everyone else is
and I'm supposed to see progress but no one is around to tell me that there is any
like a race with a starting line written in pill dust that's gone when I turn to check it
messaging friends at 3am, messaging myself at 4am,
feeling too old or too unwanted or too anything and making it even worse because insecurities are even more of a burden
and then that's the burden. The frustration is nauseating, vomiting again, now I just don't fucking care
I tried to do it right, and I was doing it wrong and then I did it wrong and knew I had to do it right
I'm seeing Christmas spirit and love, fights and arguments, blocked accounts and lashes against a boyfriend or girlfriend
that didn't all them right back, that isn't fucking them right and there's a sad, dark, wishful beast inside me that misses
that and then laughs knowing how that's something they would miss, too.
then there's a window in the madness, a lapse in the neurons over firing and I have to use this time to remember what the fuck,
absolutely
positively makes me feel good. I don't get to think, I just do.
and then I remembered,
and then I did it.
It was this." - The Lapse
It took...so much work, so much wracking of my mind, sleepless nights, friends and hope to try to find the good place again. When I was writing and drowning myself in my photography, I was at my absolute happiest. I struggled so long for what I thought was something I had to leave forever because of neglect. I'm glad I dug out the terabyte of photos I was too shameful to share because I felt inadequate or useless . The use is my fucking sanity.
